Compel Youth

2nd Sunday of Every Month

Connect Groups

Life change happens in the context of relationships.
Middle School and High School Connect Groups are where students move from sitting in rows to living in circles.

 

Sermon-Based  Connect Groups

These groups help students talk through the Youth Night message or the Weekend message, ask real questions, and learn how to follow Jesus in everyday life.

Social Connect Groups

These groups are built around shared interests and activities (pickleball, basketball, gaming, ice cream, coffee, etc.) — creating space for friendships to form naturally while leaders point students toward Jesus.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

We believe students aren’t just the future of the Church — they’re the Church right now.

We believe students can make a kingdom difference by serving their church, their city, and their generation.

5th Sunday Serves

Every 5th Sunday, Compel Youth takes over by serving alongside our Dream Team during the 11AM Sunday service across all campuses. From greeting, to ushering, and even production, students don’t just attend — they lead.

This is how students grow responsibility, ownership, and a heart for God’s house.
